Well located, well equipped villa with fantastic view
We just spent ten very happy days here, mainly just the two of us, but for a few days we had the company of an old friend. The villa was plenty big enough for the three adults (it might struggle with four adults though). The villa itself is well located in a tranquil part of the St Juan de Capistrano urbanization. It's about a 30 minute walk down into the centre of Nerja. You'll find everything you need for a self-catering holiday. We cooked at home every night but one. It's worth bringing your own basics such a olive oil, sugar, tea, etc, but that's pretty standard for holiday rentals. The shop by the swimming pool has all that sort of stuff in stock. The pool is about a 5-minute walk and is lovely, one of the largest in the area I gather. We were there early inthe season so it was never crowded and the staff at the Pool Bar are lovely. We made lemonade from the lemons in the tree which hangs into the little garden area, which was fun. The really fantastic thing about this villa is the view from the terrace, which is spectacular, looking down across Nerja to the sea. Each night we'd watch the sun set, which was a real treat. The one thing I will say is that because we had issues with the internet on our phones, we didn't have access to any maps, so it was really difficult to find the villa the first time. But once you do find it, it's easy to remember how to get there. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. It is a really lovely place to stay while enjoying Nerja.

Absolutely brilliant villa
The villa had a lovely quiet atmosphere with easy access to the local pool, shops and bars, as well as being very clean and tidy. The location was brilliant with bus routes/taxis down to the beach and town which are both beautiful. Paul was very communicative before our holiday providing an easy and relaxed experience. Would definitely book again :)

Unlucky
I might be just unlucky one I would not know. I had a late arrival 22:30 and walked into uncleaned villa. I contacted the manager and the owner straight away. The manager came with his wife, cleaned and changed the bedding in one of the bedroom. The other bedroom didnt even touched. I appreciated the quick response and I could sleep in clean bed but the cleaning was not complete. I contacted the manager and offered they could come and finished it off next morning. Didnt hear back from him. Cleaned at least the outside of the terrace which was the reason I booked the villa. Mistakes can happen but was taken back by not communication from the manager who deals with the property. I liked the villa especially the terrace and the views. So really the downside was the dealing with the mistake and that I could hear neighbours next to me or above me so it was so far the nosiest villa I stayed in Nerja.

A tranquil villa in picturesque surroundings
The house exceeded our expectations, but not our bank balances. Someone mentioned the size being less than they expected. There were two large bedrooms and a decent sized living area, plus a spacious patio and neat garden. The villa was very well equipped and in a tranquil and picturesque complex with an abundance of flowers and birds. A five minute walk took us to the bus stop and a small, rather overpriced supermarket. I'd recommend Supermercados MAS for decent fruit, meat and vegetables, plus Deal for cheap basics. Paul was fantastic at responding to emails and we were grateful to be able to arrange a late check out. The only downside was arriving at 3am to discover that there wasn't a single toilet roll. It turned out that this was a small price to pay.

Nice Property
Me and my two older children stayed here for 6 nights. The property itself was nice. It was clean and simple. It was a little on the small side to be classified as a Villa, but overall big enough for the 3 of us. The mattresses were comfy enough. The kitchen is modern and clean. It was a real bonus having a washing machine. The location itself is in a lovely picturesque urbanisation right at the top of a steep hill. This property is not for those with mobility issues as its a steep climb! There is a bus however on the hour that stops a 5 min walk away and taxi will cost around 7 euros to Nerja centre. The bathroom could do with an update as it's a little worn. Although it's a sea view from the terrace it's hard to see as the greenery is a little too tall. We had an issue with one of the beds and finding the property when we arrived and the owner messaged us back within minutes. He's very prompt and communication is brilliant. A lovely property and lovely owner.

Lovely relaxing holiday
We were after a quiet and relaxing holiday and this was the perfect apartment for it! Perfect for 4 people. Great patio/ garden area and the corner sofa is very sociable. The apartment is well equipped and comfortable. Pool area is very nice and clean and super deep for diving. We had a hire car but did walk down to the town some evenings ( about 30 mins) and had a taxi back which was about 7 Euro’s. Great holiday would recommend

A lovely villa in a lovely town
This was a great base for a lovely holiday. The villa was just as described in the listing; it was clean, comfortable and well equipped. The terrace was spacious and always shady whilst the garden was always sunny - a perfect combination. It was also good to have air conditioning in the living room and both bedrooms - some villas we've stayed in only have air con in the main bedroom. Beach towels as well as bath towels were provided which was a bonus. The villa is in a pretty urbanisation built on a hillside overlooking the coast which had lovely, well maintained grounds. The pool and its surroundings were excellent with a few little bars and a handy mini-market close by. Nerja is a beautiful, lively town only 10 minutes away by car or bus with lots of restaurants, shops and several supermarkets. The villa is also only a few minutes drive away from Burriana Beach which whilst busy, has lots of facilities.

Amazing value - great apartment
The booking process was incredibly easy and Paul is super fast at replying to emails. The property is fantastic value for money and on a great urbanisation. We’ve stayed in Nerja many times and this property has been our favourite so far. We hired a car, so the drive to the beach was easy (as we were up a hill). Parking at the villa was easy and close to the gate to the property. The kids loved the on site pool and we had 2 excellent meals at Rockys restaurant on site too. We’d book this place again in a shot!

Well equipped property with great views
Our dealings with Paul the owner were excellent from start to finish and his prompt handling of a difficulty with the house keys at the start of our stay was appreciated. House has a lovely terrace and garden. Also great to have so many tv channels when you may not go out every night as it’s winter time. We needed to use the effective radiator as it was cold in the evenings and the underfloor heating in the bathroom was a lovely surprise and welcomed. We arrived on a bank holiday and had trouble finding any shops open to get any provisions such as bread or milk so a small welcome pack such as we have received in other rentals, would have been appreciated but with our knowledge of the area, meant we found a small shop open. Only small negative regarding the property was the bedding which seemed a little tired and in fact one of the beds didn’t even have a cover on the quilt and the quilt looked like it had seen better days and not very inviting. However, none of the small negatives mentioned were significant enough to spoil yet another great stay in Nerja. Would I stay at the property again - Absolutely 👍

Nice apartment but it was very bad cleand by Arrival and never action was taken by the management or
We are very dissapointed because of the poor cleaning of the house. Dishes, cutlery, hob, diswasher, behind the couch and under the beds it was not cleand by Arrival. We informed the owner and the Dimitri(housekeeper) several times but not any action was taken. This is not acceptabel in 2017!!!!!. Also because in the rental price, cleaning, is included. So we did not get Where we paid for. We will not recommend this house!
